1000-Lb Sisters: Amanda Halterman Claps Back at Online Trolls Who Criticize Her Sisters

1000-lb Sisters star Amanda Halterman is not one to shy away from confrontation, recently taking a strong stand against a social media troll. At 44, Amanda juggles her role as a bus driver and mother of four, while also appearing on the popular reality show alongside her talented family. Although the series mainly spotlights her younger sisters, Tammy Slaton, 38, and Amy Slaton, 37, Amanda has carved out her own space in the spotlight, especially after gaining viewers’ affection in season 6.

Although she was less prominent in earlier seasons, Amanda’s involvement surged in season 6, allowing her to shine alongside her sisters. The Slaton family is tightly knit, embodying a profound sense of loyalty and unity. Recently, Amanda found herself defending her sisters against a troll’s unwarranted insult, demonstrating her fierce family loyalty.

Since the show’s launch in season 6, Amanda has successfully lost weight after her revision surgery in March 2023, though a knee injury has temporarily hindered her progress.

Amidst a family meeting, Tammy expressed her frustrations and declared Amanda “dead to her, ”leading to an extended period of silence between the sisters.
